Oswald swears to Maroni that he will pay. Nygma tries to protect Kristin Kryngle from her boyfriend Tom Dougherty, but goes too far when he stabs him a dozen times and has a psychotic breakdown. Gordon, Bullock, and Essen identifiy the killer as Jason Skolimsky, the son of Constance van Groot’s butler Jakob Skolimsky (Daniel Davis), who went under the van Groot last name only to be rejected by his adoptive mother Constance.
